🐶 If your furry friend has been diagnosed with heartworm disease, it's important to restrict their exercise.

😢 Physical exertion can exacerbate the damage the heartworms cause to the dog's heart and lungs.

Providing year-round heartworm prevention is an important part of your pet’s health care plan. If you would like to discuss the various preventives, contact our team by calling (585) 546-1550, so we can determine what protocol would best fit you and your pet’s lifestyle.

Although Lyme disease has never been confirmed in cats outside a laboratory setting, cats should still be considered at-risk as a preventive measure. Protect your furry friend from this debilitating condition by contacting us at (585) 546-1550.

Stay informed, stay safe, and keep your pet healthy! ❤️
